I was telling somebody essentially the same thing yesterday. I didn't have all the historical examples that Kieth uses, but I had a few others. The response? "Oh, this will never reach the proportions of the Civil Rights movement, much less the French Revolution."
One one level I hope he's right, especially about the revolution part.
This was phenomenal. I mean, they all are - but the way he managed to work the humor in alongside the righteous indignation (and didn't he sound almost punchy every time he said "GOD DAMNED BATMAN MOVIE"?) made this one stand out in a way other SCs have not.
Very good point re: opposition driving the protests to places they might not reach on their own. The batman line made me wonder if somebody there had personal experience with traffic issues from that movie shoot.
